Abstract: The purpose of the collection relates to the application for benefits. SSA adds the reported earnings to the respondent’s Social Security record, thereby providing the necessary earnings information to establish the correct benefit amounts that the beneficiary is due. The collection is voluntary, the modality is paper, and respondents can complete the forms by themselves. SSA employees collect and process these forms for annual use. The respondents are individuals, or the employers of those individuals; we use employer addresses only when we do not have the individual’s correct address information.
